Luckily there's a solution, grab some of the last "raw" cars (manual F80? N/A GT3s?) and hold onto them forever while saving your pennies for the balls-to-the-wall 2s 0-60 hybrid monsters coming down the pipeline.
Not that far of a reach as the article indicated.... twin turbo ICE with three electrical motors in the same place as the NSX, you can bet they bought one and dissected it...ain't the first time or last time a car maker does something like that.
But, yes it is a hell of a time for sports cars right now...wish I was a billionaire or at least a millionaire....

I'm hearing rumors that the next generation Cayman will be all electric......can imagine how quick that will be

Still want to get me a 981 version soon though
